Add Parts And Labor To Work Order Tasks

Add Parts & Labor

Parts and labor can be added to each Work Order task using the Add Parts and Add Labor options.

Add Parts

Clicking Add Parts will bring up a text box where Part Number, Quantity, and Cost can added.

After entering a quantity, the cost is automatically populated. If inventory tracking is enabled, the system calculates the cost using available part receipts for that part number.

Selecting Save attaches the part to the task and provides the option to continue adding additional parts as needed. Selecting Cancel closes the Enter Parts box without saving.

Once a part is added to a task, the action gear to the right of the part number allows the item to be edited or deleted.

Add Labor

The process for adding labor is similar to adding parts. Select the Add Labor button beneath the task name.

Enter the name of the employee or vendor performing the task and specify the hours as the quantity. The labor rate is automatically pulled from the employee or vendor profile. The cost can be overridden if necessary before saving.

Once the labor entry is saved, the action gear can be used to edit or delete the labor record.

Add Costs To Tasks Without Itemizing Parts Or Labor

Part and labor costs can be added to tasks without itemizing specific part numbers or labor hours. This is useful for applying a general shop cost to a task without specifying an individual part, employee, or vendor.

To use this option, the task must not already have any parts or labor attached. The cost fields must appear in blue and be clickable.

Labor costs are entered using the same process as part costs.
